What You'll Get
Mistrust of science peaked in the early 19th century, when Frankenstein portrayed scientists as castle-dwelling snobs out of touch with the pitchfork-toting masses. Get a better view of science with today's Groupon: for $9, you get 24 issues of Popular Science magazine (an $18 value).
Every month, the scribes of Popular Science magazine transport readers into the future with articles covering the most exciting facets and frontiers of science and technology. The magazine’s writers and editors focus their insight on everything from cars and gadgets to space and the environment, giving readers the scientific savvy to impress strangers with their knowledge, rather than their ability to hypnotize gerbils. Past features include "The Last Drops: How to Bridge the Gap Between Oil and Green Energy" and “After Earth: Why, Where, How, and When We Might Leave Our Home Planet.” A DIY section imparts practical knowledge on how to build everything from an e-reader case to a backyard movie theater ideal for screening Leonard Nimoy's blooper reel.
